They've opened little yellow, blue and orange doors around town and now the same people are bringing The Little Scarlet Door to Soho. It's part of the big renovations on Greek Street which have created the new Ilona Rose House (so you can see where they got the inspiration for the colour choice).

... - The Sunny Side Up cafe is a Veuve Clicquot breakfast cafe in Soho
Veueve Clicquot is coming to Soho with The Sunny Side Cafe, a pop-up that's a little different from their standard fare. Yes, there's Champagne (of course) but this is also a pop-up that's their own take on a classic greasy spoon cafe. As you can imagine from the Champagne house, it's going to be very different from the greasy spoons that you'll have encountered
... - Chin Chin are launching a spring treat for lemon lovers
They say a picture paints a thousand words and if that's true, what this picture of CHIN CHIN Dessert Club's latest creation is telling us, is that our life would be immeasurably better having tried it.

... - The Wong Kar Wine team are heading to London from St Petersburg
We were sad to see the back of Corazon, Soho's popular taco spot which failed to make it out of lockdown. Now there's news of what's going to take its place. It'll be a new restaurant from the team behind St Petersburg's Wong Kar Wine. Madina Kazhimova and Anna Dolgushina are the brains behind the operation which opened in St Petersburg back in 2014.

- Yolk brings egg pots and sandwiches to Soho
After a first glance at the name, you might expect Yolk to be the latest of London's trend of egg-based restaurants. And while eggs are indeed on the menu, it's actually also about sandwiches or, as they put it, "fine fast food". They've already opened two places in the city in New Street and Broadgate and their latest is coming to Soho's Golden Square.
Eggs are available at breakfast in the shape of

- Louche is a new late night bar for Soho, with its eye on Soho's past
A new bar is heading to Soho, taking over the space that used to hold 68 & Boston on Greek Street. From the same people behind the Records bars (Venn St, Northcote and Eastcheap) Louche is looking to be inspired by the Soho of the 1920s and beyond.
What does that mean in practice? Lots of wood panelling for a start, but also apparently "hidden peep shows" (it is old school Soho they're
